The Body live in Montreal

Experience The Body live on July 10th

The Body, a duo originating from Wilmington, Delaware, will be performing at Bar Le Ritz Pdb in Montreal, Canada on July 10, 2026. Their music is generally categorized as experimental metal, often incorporating elements of doom metal, noise, and industrial music. Characterized by intensely heavy and often dissonant soundscapes, The Body’s work frequently explores themes of trauma, spirituality, and societal decay through both visceral instrumentation and spoken word passages. They are known for their dynamic range, shifting between crushing heaviness and moments of stark quietude. The band has released numerous albums on labels including Neurot Recordings and Thrill Jockey.

Bar Le Ritz Pdb is a long-standing independent music venue located in the Plateau Mont-Royal borough of Montreal. Originally opening as a cabaret in 1990, it quickly became a prominent space for alternative and underground music scenes. Throughout its history, the venue has hosted a diverse array of artists spanning genres like punk rock, hardcore, electronic music, hip-hop and experimental sounds. It’s known for its intimate setting and relatively small capacity – approximately 250 people – fostering close connections between performers and audiences.
